The Soul Food Sisters have made almost 1,000 meals to be distributed to Glasgow s most hungry this Christmas.
A group of Glasgow-based migrant women are putting their culinary skills to good use, preparing meals for almost 1,000 of the city’s most vulnerable people this Christmas.
The Soul Food Sisters gave their first batch of home-cooked dinners to people based at the Salvation Army’s Wallace of Campsie Lighthouse, with hundreds more set to receive a meal this week.
Despite being hit hard by Covid-19, the organisation and its supporters managed to pull through thanks to donations and a helping hand to keep the social enterprise afloat.

Soul Food Sisters will provide nearly 1000 meals to people in need in Glasgow over the coming days, and delivered the first batch to the Salvation Army’s Wallace of Campsie Lifehouse last night. Despite being hit hard by Covid this year, with catering and funded work drying up, the organisation saw supporters donate time and money to help keep them going.
